Análisis social, económico y ambiental de la productividad ganadera: uso óptimo de recursos

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to diagnose the social, economic and environmental factors that influence livestock productivity. The methodology applied is based on the compilation and analysis of bibliographic information contained in books, academic articles, national and international reports. In addition, this research considers a non-experimental, cross-sectional, argumentative and strategic design, obtaining information in questions directed to three farms, through a descriptive methodological outline with quantitative and qualitative variables. The results showed that 66.7% of livestock production is underutilized, with the highest concentration of this activity located in the Sierra region, below 80%. It was determined that the livestock sector has had a considerable contribution represented in last year's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (8.2%). It is concluded that livestock productivity must be aligned with the objectives of sustainable development, which considers feasible alternatives to convert losses into profits, to generate profitability, stability and innovation, contributing to sustained and timely growth at the local and national levels and thus expand to international networks.
